The modern-day Addams Family returns for a second season of their landmark reality sitcom. Overexposure quickly wore out the Osbournes' welcome, but the season opener, "What Goes Up," is a reminder of the surreal circus that was their lightning-in-a-bottle 15 minutes of fame. Ozzy and Sharon attend the White House Correspondents' dinner, where Ozzy rates a mention by the president and receives a thundering ovation. Daughter Kelly performs "Papa Don't Preach" at the MTV Music Awards. And son Jack is thrilled that McDonald's has brought back the McRib. The next episode, "Must Come Down," is the reality check, in which Sharon is diagnosed with colon cancer. But the family quickly gets back "to what they usually do," which is drive each other (and anyone who crosses them) crazy. Jack takes special delight in tormenting trespassing tourists by turning the sprinklers on them. When Kelly brings home her first serious boyfriend, a rock singer, it's to her mortified horror that Sharon questions him about his obscene nickname. The season does comes to a poignant end with a lavish New Year's party during which Ozzy and Sharon renew their vows, and ends with Ozzy passed out on the couch (just like their first honeymoon, Sharon sardonically observes). Of course, there is reality and there is reality. Though not dealt with onscreen, it has since been reported that Jack has undergone rehab for a substance abuse problem, a tragic family legacy. This puts something of a damper on watching the "wacky" antics. But as with the first season, The Osbournes is fun to visit, with cameos by, among others, Natalie Portman, Mandy Moore, P. Diddy, and Marilyn Manson adding to the cachet. But thank god you don't live there. As with the first season, this two-disc package contains such inspired extras as a translator that provides subtitles for the addled Ozzy's profanity-laced dialogue and a preferred bleep-free viewing option.--Donald Liebenson

 UNCENSORED or CENSORED October 14, 2003
13 out of 14 found this review helpful
According to the review from DREW WELDON from LAKE PARK, GEORGIA, the uncensored versions are not available. However, DVD reviews from other sites say that each show starts with the dialogue censored, and you have to go and switch it to uncensored every time. While this is an inconvenience, it's not true to say that the uncensored versions are not available at all.
Awesome, but incomplete!!! January 29, 2004

The season two set is incomplete. It does not include the last ten episodes of the season that were produced late in the season.As season three has now started, hopefully the second half of season two will be released onto DVD along with the Christmas special.
Typical American Family?? November 29, 2003

They are not the typical American family, when it comes to the language. But the love they share, is what we all need.
Is there a house out there, that has sibling that don't fight? How about a spouse with a few problems? How about problematic children or teenagers? If you do than you need to write a book. Because what you see on the Osbournes is the truth of a real life family. We all don't use their language, but there problems are typical. I especially loved the re-newing of the vows. That was very special, especially after Ossie reunited Sharon with her Dad! Than her Dad gave her away at the wedding.
Ossie, you are so special.
I also could identify, with Sharon, and the entire family during her heath crisis. I have been there, and no matter what a family looks like on the outside, this family pulled together to get her through, and she maintained as much of a normal life as she could for them. I LOVE THE OSBOURNES! WE COULD LEARN HOW TO LOVE FROM THIS FAMILY!
Just as funny as the first season September 30, 2003

I just watched a few episodes of the 2nd Osbournes season and it was just as funny, if not funnier than the first season. Seeing Ozzy fumble around his daily life and seeing his lights go on when he is on stage is amazing. Kelly and Jack drive each other crazy as usual and Sharon is there to referee, from her sick bed. I highly recommend anyone to buy this. I have never been a fan of Ozzy's music but I love the show. I cannot wait for the 3rd season to come out.
Good Follow Up May 13, 2004

Ozzy and pals have done it again! This time the series is much more warm. The fact that Sharon was diagonised with cancer only served to make the show reveal some stonger emotions. The kids are still brats and the Oz is still a madman, but you can tell that they truly love one another. Most reality TV is somewhat fake, and The Osbournes have obviously staged episodes, but the emotion is real. Very good DVD. Once again...NOT FOR KIDS.
